Attraction Source Forum

Hi just wondering how often do you visit a theme park in a season. I have a Tussauds/Merlin annual pass and i have visited alton towers once chessington 4 times and Thorpe Park over 20 times really just because i live just down the motorway in Basingstoke so it only it takes under an hour to get there.

I will have done Alton Towers twice this season just because I live so far away, but would like to do it 3 or 4 times next season and try Thorpe a couple of times away because my missus' parents house is only 60 miles away from Thorpe

yeah, I'm a TP local too, just 20mins away.

I'd say I get to Thorpe about 10 times, CWoA maybe 5. Alton is a bit further afield, so usually only once/twice a year. I Also try to get to Drayton and BPB once a year as well.

This year I went to Legoland for the first time, and was not impressed. I have a huge Lego town in my spare room, so I loooooooove Lego, but the park itself failed to impress me. Yes, the models were great, but the rides sucked arse! And as for the 'pick-a-brick' shop, how over-priced can it get? TIP: if you want to buy specific Lego bricks, go here:

Anyway, If I had my way I would get to a park at least once a week. sadly real life gets in the way!

Ermmmm......Already been towers four times already and planning og at least one other time this year:D

Towers this year....About....oh god i dread to think. Ive been since i got back from india about 4 times in the same amount of weeks?

I say ive been atleast 15-20 times this season....Probably a lot more...

Towers *1 (might do one more before season end, it's quite a way)

Blackpool * 2 (one 2 day visit, 1 1 day), love the place!

I'd love to visit parks as much as you guys do but some us have to work

How do you manage it???

Suppose because I don't have my own place and live at the end of the country its even harder...

So far this year for me -

Blackpool Pleasure Beach x 19
New Pleasureland x 3
Alton x 2
Drayton Mnaor x 1
Camelot x 1

Quite happy with that, Flamingo Land to come yet, also about 20 more Blackpool and Pleasureland trips a few Alton and maybe Drayton to! :P

I didnt really do many last year apart from Pleasure Beach once and Pleasureland quite a few times, this year it's really taken of!

This year for me...

Pleasure Beach x 38
Alton x 5
Flamingo x 1
Drayton x 3
Thorpe x 2
Chessington x 1
Camelot x 1

Wanting to get to Fantasy Island & Lightwater before the years out and either to Europa & Phantasia or Porta.
